Honestly, I agree with some of the reviews here: I wish I could give it a neutral.
It's a nice game where you get to sort packages for the first few hours but after that there's really no challenge. I understand it's a cozy game but I wish you would get penalized if you make a mistake (or have a difficulty setting since I know there are people who don't want the penalty). You get new rooms with new gimmicks but not following them has barely any penalty. I guess the devs wanted to lean into the cozy aspect of the game more, so there's really nothing stopping you from just disregarding the gimmicks. Especially the nighttime ones, I quickly found out that there's no reason for you to use the machine. There's no penalty if you send only one out of the pair. No bonuses for if you send the pair either. And the cursed packages rarely show up, too. So no incentive to follow this specific gimmick, LOL.
I also didn't have any rooms overflowing, so maybe that's why the gimmicks lost meaning for me. If I just send them out immediately on that day, then there's no reason for me to use the rooms. I also didn't come across the issue of the captain not going to a certain area for too long, so the outgoing packages never really piled up for me. I had a lot of empty shelves and gradually lost the need to sort packages.
You also most likely won't get invested in the story either since the "story" is only a few lines of dialogue at the end of the game.
However I still enjoyed it for what it was, hence the 'recommended'. Just wish the gimmicks had more meaning. I got it on sale so it was worth the price, but I honestly wouldn't get it at full price.
Also yes, a lot of other reviews have mentioned this but something's off about the first person camera in this game. Motion sickness is BAD, I had to take breaks every hour. I'm susceptible to it but it usually sets in after a FEW hours, not one hour. Even with this, I finished the game in 11 hours. You can keep going and there is also a multiplayer option.
